Mississauga Santa Claus Parade 2026
Kickoff the winter season in downtown Mississauga with the return of the Santa Claus parade, the opening of the city’s largest outdoor ice rink, and lighting of the Christmas tree!
Watch the downtown glow with glowing parade floats, family-friendly activities, outdoor holiday cheer and Santa himself.
This year’s theme, Sauga’s Home for the Holidays, invites parade entries to showcase the traditions, cultures, stories, and people that make our city feel like home. From cherished family traditions to festive celebrations from all over the world, the parade is a joyful reminder of how Mississauga comes together to celebrate the most wonderful time of the year.
Road closures will be in effect. Stay tuned about the parade route and event details.
